Oscar Nods

Looks like a good year for the studios and biopics... and black actors. They've been surprisingly responsive to the outcry over the Oscars several years back when people of color were completely overlooked. Women haven't fared as well, especially those over 40... as you'll see in my next post.

Mel Gibson's Aramaic mess got 3 nods while Moore gets totally screwed. I guess it's his own hubris that took him out of the running, I sure hope he would've gotten a best doc nod. It's better this way, he's supposed to be the fly in the ointment. At the Globes he was all tuxed out, we don't want this guy co-opted. Thanks for screwing him, Oscar voters, all 6,800 of you. BTW, did you hear Bush just asked for another $80B?
